eToeholds. (a) Gene expression of the GOI is in the off-state in the absence of the trigger RNA due to inhibitory loops within the RNA structure. (b) In the presence of the trigger RNA (dark blue), it binds to the complementary RNA (teal) within the eToehold, causing disruption of the toehold structure to enable the assembly of ribosomes and translation of the downstream GOI.
